This is great, and Media Matters is super upset, which makes it all the better. Let's jump right into this:

You love to see it!

Apparently Walsh's YouTube channel, back in April, "had been stripped of advertiser revenue" due to his rhetoric on trans issues. Dude tells the truth, and the Left hates that, so I'm sure Media Matters was extra excited when they found out he'd lost some of his advertisements on YouTube.

However, Walsh didn't budge; he kept the same tone and, against all rules of the day, continued to tell the truth on his channel. And now, well, I'll let Media Matters cry about it for ya, cuz it's more fun that way.

In an April 24 video posted to YouTube, Matt Walsh confirmed that his channel had been stripped of advertiser revenue, a first step to either permanent demonetization or a ban from the platform, claiming that the penalty would cost him more than $100,000 per month. Walsh then explained that he could "get back into YouTube's good graces" and restore advertiser revenue to his channel by "simply respecting preferred pronouns and refraining from offering any meaningful critiques of gender ideology."

He didn't do any of that, misgendering Lia Thomas in multiple videos, attacking Bud Light, Disney, and Target with false accusations of "grooming" and "promoting transgenderism," and claiming that LGBTQ activists demand child sacrifice. At least half a dozen videos published after Walsh's demonetization and reviewed by Media Matters appear to violate YouTube's advertiser-friendly guidelines. Three months later, YouTube restored advertiser revenue to his channel anyway.

🤣🤣🤣

They actually reviewed the videos like it was a school project!

Amazing!

I'm just gonna let them keep going, because this is better than satire.

During his suspension from advertiser revenue, Walsh stopped posting the full version of his show to YouTube, opting instead to post it to the Daily Wire's own website and X.com (formerly Twitter). But in shorter videos posted to YouTube, Walsh continued attacking Dylan Mulvaney and Bud Light, in defiance of YouTube's disciplinary ruling, with a May 5 video mocking the brand's poor sales, during which the podcaster declared, "It is going to make brands in the future think long and hard about promoting transgenderism."

Walsh's flouting of YouTube guidelines didn't stop there.

It didn't stop there, you guys. Very serious stuff.

I feel bad for these people, I really do.

You can click that link up there to read all of the instances. Media Matters unearthed a bunch of them, and they're all written in an equally funny tone (though I'm assuming Media Matters is being serious).

More from the snowflakes:

The platform blinked first. The Social Blade previously estimated Walsh's annual advertiser revenue to be as high as $1.6 million per year. Now, following his return from demonetization, he could still be making as much as $1.4 million a year for sharing content that last year earned him the title of Transphobe of the Year. This kind of content fuels dangerous real world actions: a San Bernardino mother of 9 was shot in August defending the Pride flag in front of her store. The shooter had previously shared Walsh's call to boycott Target and had pinned an image of a burning Pride flag to the top of his account on X.

These people are desperate for attention, and to pin their problems on people who tell the truth. It's sad.

Last paragraph of the piece:

In a statement to Media Matters confirming the initial demonetization, a spokesperson for YouTube wrote, "We suspended monetization on Matt Walsh's channel due to repeated violations of our YouTube Partner Program policies, which include our Advertiser-Friendly Guidelines. These policies apply equally to all creators, regardless of political viewpoint, and channels that repeatedly violate these policies are demonetized." YouTube's hate speech policy prohibits content that "promotes violence or hatred against individuals or groups" based on, among other protected categories, "gender identity and expression" and/or "sexual orientation." Walsh repeatedly violated those policies during his suspension, and YouTube is rewarding him with cash by the truck load.

They're so mad. And it's so entertaining. It's like a whole other world these people live in, isn't it?

As for Walsh's response to this piece:

Picture perfect.
